I have been travelling around the world with and without couchsurfing for the last 3 years and now finally decided to call London home for the time being. I have worked with advertising agencies such as O&M, BBH in the past and now with Weber Shandwick as a brand planner
How I Participate in CS
I volunteered for couch surfing in 2 of the collectives i.e Thailand and Alaska. I no longer volunteer but participate as a host/guest instead.
CouchSurfing Experience
My working experience with couchsurfing, helping CS create a visual identity is my best experience. I have met some wonderful people along the way and continue to meet more.
Interests
Watching movies, reading books, cooking and having pointless long conversations through the night
Philosophy
Live it !
Music, Movies, Books
I enjoy discovering different kinds of music from different parts of the world. Apart from the fact that I buy more books than I read, hoping I will have the time to read them all one day.
Movies, I am a fan of the way it is made than the way it is written
Types of People I enjoy
All species are welcome. I love human psychology.

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.
In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.
When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

I met Bali Denali Shonali at the AK colletive. She is the perfect mix of serious and silly. We laughed a lot, flew the glacier and made a very crazy computer Shonali so she could cyber try out haircuts..hilarious

Shonali! One of the fondest memories I have of Shonali was her first time touching snow ever! Not often does one get to witness somethig like that and it was very nice to see :) Shonali is a very vibrant girl with a huge heart-warming smile. I hope to do some more undercover-statistics with you some day!

Shonali was my dance partner at the collective. She is an all around fun to person to hang out with. She has a serious side and a crazy side and I feel I was able to experience both. She is a curious person that seems eager to learn about different cultures. She also has a great smile and is a fantastic dancer :-)

If you get the chance to go for a ride with her you'll have a blast!!
Beautiful bollywood star that knows how to sparkle!
In about a week she wrecked only one jar at a cafe in my apartment complex. I'm impressed..lol, banana shake without ice, a girl who (from now on) travels with hair curling rods iron, super lively, always giggling, smart but not afraid to be silly. Girl, you rock! So now who's gonna do Bollywood dance to entertain me? awwwww...w.w...
